FTI-277 HCl | CAS#180977-34-8 | Farnesyltransferase inhibitor

MedKoo Cat#: 406300 | Name: FTI-277 HCl

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

FTI-277 is a peptide mimetic of the COOH-terminal Cys-Val-Ile-Met of K-Ras4B that inhibited potently FTase in vitro (IC50 = 500 pM) and was highly selective for FTase over geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I) (IC50 = 50 nM). FTI-277, the methyl ester derivative of FTI-276, was extremely potent (IC50 = 100 nM) at inhibiting H-Ras, but not the geranylgeranylated Rap1A processing in whole cells.

More Info

Treatment of H-Ras oncogene-transformed NIH 3T3 cells with FTI-277 blocked recruitment to the plasma membrane and subsequent activation of the serine/threonine kinase c-Raf-1 in cells transformed by farnesylated Ras (H-RasF), but not geranylgeranylated, Ras (H-RasGG). FTI-277 induced accumulation of cytoplasmic non-farnesylated H-Ras that was able to bind Raf and form cytoplasmic Ras/Raf complexes in which Raf kinase was not activated. Furthermore, FTI-277 blocked constitutive activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) in H-RasF, but not H-RasGG, or Raf-transformed cells. FTI-277 also inhibited oncogenic K-Ras4B processing and constitutive activation of MAPK, but the concentrations required were 100-fold higher than those needed for H-Ras inhibition. The results demonstrate that FTI-277 blocks Ras oncogenic signaling by accumulating inactive Ras/Raf complexes in the cytoplasm, hence preventing constitutive activation of the MAPK cascade.

Biological target:

FTI-277 hydrochloride is an inhibitor of farnesyl transferase (FTase); a highly potent Ras CAAX peptidomimetic which antagonizes both H- and K-Ras oncogenic signaling.

In vitro activity:

MTT assay demonstrated that FTI-277 inhibited proliferation of the H-Ras-MCF10A, Hs578T and MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner (Fig. 2). FTI-277 exerted a strong anti-proliferative effect on the H-Ras-MCF10A and Hs578T cells with 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of 6.84 and 14.87 µM for 48 h, respectively. FTI-277 treatment inhibited proliferation of the MDA-MB-231 cells with an IC50 value of 29.32 µM for 48 h. The results suggest that breast cells in which H-Ras is activated may be more susceptible to FTI-277 compared with the cells with wild-type H-Ras.

In vivo activity:

A single injection of farnesyltransferase inhibitor (25 mg/kg b.wt. FTI-277) at 2 h after CLP prolonged survival time of septic mice compared with vehicle alone. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed statistically significant beneficial effects of FTI-277 compared with vehicle alone (p < 0.0001) (Fig. 1A). χ2 test also revealed that FTI-277 significantly reduced mortality after CLP in mice (p = 0.001).
